Volunteer Handbook. Mission Statement St. John’s Catholic School, a fully accredited educational institution, develops the whole person, promotes Gospel values, inspires a love of learning, and upholds academic excellence in a nurturing community. St. Xxxx the Baptist Catholic School relies heavily on parent involvement and participation in school activities. Parent volunteers support, manage, and maintain many school activities and events throughout the year. Families are asked to contribute 30 service hours per school year (15 hours for single parents). Being a homeroom parent or playground aide, chaperoning field trips, and helping with the fundraising events are ways in which parents directly support staff and students. Some events help to build community and xxxxxx a sense of Christian growth. In addition, fundraisers – most notably the annual Bazaar – bring in thousands of dollars for the operating budget of the school.
